When you are unable to waitlist a closed section, consider the following restrictions:
- Waitlist rules will not allow waitlisting for a duplicate section of a course in which a student is already enrolled
- The same pre-requisites that are enforced on the course section are enforced when signing up for that section's waitlist
- The waitlist capacity of the section has already been met
No, academic departments have the authority to choose which sections will have a waitlist and which will not.

Applications are processed in the date order that they are received. It may take up to two weeks for your application to be reviewed. If additional documentation is needed, you will be notified by email to your ASU email account. All of the information and documentation that you provide is reviewed. You will be notified of the decision by a letter mailed to your permanent address.
Yes, if it applies to you. Providing the documents will assist the residency officer in reviewing your application while applying the requirements of North Carolina residency law. Be sure to make copies of your documentation prior to submitting your information to the Office of the Registrar. Copies will not be made by the Office of the Registrar and documentation submitted with your application cannot be returned.
Not necessarily. Providing the documents assists the residency officer in reviewing your application while applying the requirements of North Carolina residency law. No one can be assured a favorable decision.
This refers to a cluster of significant events demonstrating domicile (physical presence and intent) to establish legal residence. North Carolina is not a checklist state, which means that North Carolina residency for tuition purposes is not based on performing a specific set of acts. All of the information you provide on your application and through your supporting documentation is taken into consideration and is used to determine whether a preponderance (or greater weight) of evidence supports the establishment of North Carolina domicile at least 12 months prior to the beginning of the term in which you are seeking reclassification.
Students who apply for residency are not guaranteed a favorable decision. As a result, students should be prepared to pay the out-of-state tuition rate and to make the necessary payment arrangements with the Student Accounts Office prior to the bill payment deadline. If you are approved, your tuition charges will be adjusted to reflect the in-state tuition rate.
Any change in your circumstances, either favorable or unfavorable, must be reported to Office of the Registrar. Students are responsible for updating their contact information and ensuring that their address information on their student record is correct through their AppalNet account.
The reason anyone is denied in-state residency is stated in the decision letter as follows: "Based upon your application and the supporting documentation, you do not meet the requirements as prescribed by the North Carolina General Statues." Residency for tuition purposes is not based on one factor alone. All of the facts presented in an application supported by documented evidence are taken into consideration when determining whether the preponderance, or greater weight, of evidence supports North Carolina residency.
Through documented evidence, the student must prove that he/she moved to North Carolina for reasons other than attending an institution of higher learning and that he/she established a permanent residence, and maintained it for at least 12 consecutive months prior to the term of school for which in-state classification is sought. Some students may never qualify as an in-state resident for tuition purposes, particularly if the student applies for admission to the University from another school and attends school full-time semester after semester. The burden of proof is on the student to present documented evidence that he/she moved to the state for the purpose of establishing and maintaining a bona fide domicile, instead of merely maintaining a temporary residence incident to enrollment at the University.
Yes. Your residency decision letter will provide you with instructions on how to request an appeal to the University Appeals Committee. If you request an appeal, the Residency Officer will submit your documentation to the chair of the University Appeals Committee. All further correspondence regarding the appeal will come from the chair of the committee.
After your hearing, you will be notified of the decision by a letter mailed to your permanent address. If you appeal and the committee overturns the decision, your tuition charges will be adjusted to reflect the in-state tuition rate.
Yes. Your decision letter from the University Appeals Committee will give you the instructions on how to request an appeal to the State Residence Committee (SRC).
After the SRC reviews your appeal, your decision letter will be mailed to you. If the SRC overturns the decision, your tuition charges will be adjusted to reflect the in-state tuition rate.
It depends of the type of immigration documents you hold. There are certain visas and other immigration documents that give an individual the capacity (the legal ability) to establish and maintain a bona fide domicile in the U.S. and thus in North Carolina. However, that individual must still meet all of the other North Carolina residency requirements. Please refer to the North Carolina State Residence Classification Manual for more information on the types of visas and immigration documents that give an individual the capacity to establish legal residence for tuition purposes.
Other visas do not allow an individual to establish domicile. For example, international students who hold, or intend to hold, a student visa (F-1 or J-1) are not eligible to be considered for North Carolina residency status for tuition purposes.
A person does not automatically obtain North Carolina residency solely by marrying a North Carolina resident. However, if both student and spouse have established domicile in NC and the student has not met the 12-month requirement, the student may use the spouse's time in the state to meet the 12-month requirement if the spouse established domicile in NC at least 12 continuous months prior to the start of the term. The student must provide supporting documentation as it relates to both the student and the spouse. The amount of time the student and spouse have lived in the state cannot be combined to meet the 12-month requirement.
No – She would first have to be issued a green card, perform residentiary acts in NC to show her intent and then she may borrow from her spouse's 12 month duration of domicile to meet the requirement. She must first possess a document that would allow her to establish domicile in the US and thus North Carolina.
Yes – There is no way to avoid the 12-month waiting period. Some states waive a portion of the waiting period if the move was employment related, but not NC.
No – If he moves to NC and immediately begins school, it is obvious that he came here for the purpose of education. If his parents claim him as a dependent in another state and he does not earn sufficient income in NC to support himself, and he stays in school as a full-time student, he will probably remain out-of-state.
No - The classifier must determine whether your child met the 12 month requirement prior to the beginning of the term. The first time he might qualify is for the spring term. He can file a residency application with the residency officer in the Office of the Registrar.
